I’m bumping another best of 2009 post by a day to say:\u00a0 ONE WEEK! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s the “fun pose” from our 5 minute photo shoot Saturday.\u00a0 Fine print: I totally stole this from another photographer, so we can’t take any credit for it.\u00a0 Except for growing the baby–that<\/strong> I claim credit for.\u00a0 And for making Nic take the picture.\u00a0 And for the rad “ferret stripe” down my belly that takes a detour at my belly button.\u00a0 Did that with Will, too (although with Will it showed up much earlier and was much darker)!<\/em><\/p>\n

As Nic was drawing on my belly (eyebrow pencil–although Nic really wanted to use a permanent pen and let me go to the hospital like that) Will was sooooooo excited.\u00a0 “Can I<\/strong> draw Baby Ellie?!!” he wanted to know.\u00a0 So after we fired off a shot or two we turned the pencil over to him.\u00a0 He ever so carefully added eyebrows and was working on some beautiful newborn hair when the pencil broke.\u00a0 I would have loved to see how he would have finished it all off!<\/p>\n

I am crazy excited for him to meet her.\u00a0 Unfortunately because of the hospital’s “swine flu” policy, no kiddos are allowed, so he is going to have to wait even longer than Nic and I…if my current plans fail.\u00a0 (My current schemes involve dressing him up like an old man with a cane, putting him in a carseat box and smuggling him in, or saying “Ummmm–he’s 74.\u00a0 Haven’t you seen Benjamin Button?!”)\u00a0 Today we were running last minute errands and he saw a girl with her younger sister, ran right up to her and asked “Is that your Baby Ellie?\u00a0 I have a baby sister Baby Ellie.\u00a0 Your Baby Ellie is so big.\u00a0 My Baby Ellie is so small.\u00a0 She’s in Mommy’s tummy.\u00a0 I like your Baby Ellie.”\u00a0 Which made me so excited for Ellie to make her way into the world and see what a great big brother is waiting for her!<\/p>\n

Anyone want to play “guess what date\/time she will arrive?”\u00a0 The person who has the closest guess will win an AMAZING prize.\u00a0 (And by amazing, I mean something like a candy bar.\u00a0 I’m no Pioneer Woman.)\u00a0 Background scoop: Will was either 2 or 5 days early, depending on which of his due dates you go by.\u00a0 And (on a conflicting “but she might be late” note) I won’t induce\/strip membranes\/etc, so it IS possible that she could be a February baby.\u00a0 But she’d be a fool to wait that long with a big brother as cute as hers waiting on her!<\/em>
